Wow! 12 pages of comments that resolve absolutly nothing other than to make known peoples personal preferences. Some like box A because its graphically superior. Others like box B for the vast selection of games. Some hate this company and others hate the others. I think it's about time this thread died as no one is resolving anthing. The only thing thats happening here is polarization of the various gaming box camps.

By the way Rat.........congrats on the purchase and I hope you enjoy it. Definately go for the mame emu there. I would love to play metal slug and other arcade games on a modern piece of equiptment.

those 12pages got your attention didnt they...and yes your right no one is getting anywhere...but really now were just being consumers...havent you ever defended something you liked?this is a forum and people tend to chat on forums...(about anything and everything)and if you look at most of the threads on here they almost always go off topic...(if you remember in Gallstaffs thread about getting $1000 we started talking guitars)

Well that gets a big '10' on the "NO SHIT SHERLOCK" meter! Gee, I didn't know any of this before your enlightenment.

Well I think my Atari ST beats the pants off Xbox and PS2. It has keys.. do the others? It has a midi socket.. do the others? And if you spin a DVD on your finger whilst looking at the ST off your face on narcotics, the DVD's play all sorts of 'hidden extras' that you'd never find on an Xbox.

Rat, I say take your Xbox back and get yourself an ST. Don't be tempted to get an Amiga though, they're shit.

Merely offering my opinion on the discussion in its entirety. Now wipe your nose, have your mommy wipe your ass and go back to the playground. Hopscotch is about to begin followed by coloring in the lines 101.

I rip the ps2 apart because i've owned one, actually bought it for the dvd capability and I was less than impressed, the only game i bought it for was gta 3, and that is out for the pc. so i'm all happy without the ps2
smile.gif
i might go buy a gamecube today maybe. resident evil is just to amazing on the system to pass up.

Hey you got GTAIII for ps2? I rented and returned it a week late since i loved it so much. The thing is i don't wanna get it for ps2... should i get it for pc or will i be compromsing graphics/features?

I don't see why many people hate microsoft, and feel they must hate the X-box as well.

And I really hope that people who hate microsoft, hate it by choice, and not by trend.

Get it for the PC, it looks better and as a bonus you can play your own mp3 files in the game, its a great option.

Oh and for all of you that hate the xbox I have a great reason to own one..... PSO!! Sonic team is bringing it out for xbox soon.
 
so far the xbox port of PSO is just that...a straight port of v.2 for the DC. the GC version will be MUCH better since it includes "episode" 1 (the original versions 1 and 2) and an upgraded "episode" 2 (which has the new characters, 2 more levels and on and on). and it's going to be the only online game for the GC in the forseeable future.

Are these official Sony goats or third party ones?

My vote goes for third-party. The official ones tend to break down a couple of months after the warranty expires, and who's going to pay more than twice as much for a Sony goat when the Mad Catz ones are built just as well and have rubberized grips?
